Some dog lover want to know how to built a dog hosue ,there some steps fro your ref. below:
1.Consider what you’ll be using the base for. Different dogs have different needs, but almost every dog will need the following: an insulated, dry space that he can call home whether it’s hot or cold.[1] Pay attention to these factors when building a dog house:
- Think about insulation. Remember that the base builds the foundation for the whole house and creates a space of air between the ground and the floor that acts as insulation for the house. A house without a base is cooler during the cold months and warmer during the hot months.
- Consider the specific elements that might affect the base in your outdoor environment. If it rains often in your area, make sure to use a non-toxic, water-resistant material and build the base high enough off of the ground to prevent flooding.
2 .Use a framing square and a pencil to begin reproducing the diagram you created on the wood itself. Cut 2×4 wood boards into four pieces, with two at 22-1/2″ long and two at 23″ long for a medium-sized dog.
3.Place the 23” side pieces inside the 22-1/2” front and back pieces to create a rectangle with the 2″ side resting on the ground. Use a countersink drill bit to pre-drill pilot holes. Then attach the base pieces together using two 3” galvanized wood screws in each end.
4.Transfer the floor plans by using a pencil and a framing square to a single sheet of 3/4″ plywood. The dimensions are 26″ by 22-1/2″ for the above sized frame.
5.Using 1-1/4” galvanized wood screws, attach the floor panel to the base by drilling one screw into each corner of the of the base.
Hoping these steps can make sense for u.
